One of the most haunting and atmospheric love stories ever written. Heathcliff, a waif found on the streets of Liverpool, is brought home to the Yorkshire moors by Mr Earnshaw and raised as one of his own children. Hindley despises and ill-treats him, but wild Cathy becomes his constant companion, and he falls violently in love with her. When she will not marry him, Heathcliffs terrible vengeance ruins them all - but still his and Cathys love will not die . . .
